SEMA Biz Tips Video: Protect the Automotive Hobby

By SEMA Editors

The SEMA Show annually includes Education Days—a complete lineup of educational sessions covering topics ranging from customer service and marketing, to cash flow and industry trends. Conducted by industry leaders and business experts from across the globe, the seminars are designed to help attendees to sell more, be more productive and prepare for emerging trends and opportunities.

SEMA Education will include SEMA Biz Tips weekly in SEMA eNews. Many of the experts featured in SEMA Biz Tips videos conducted seminars at the 2015 SEMA Show. This week's video features Colby Martin of the SEMA Action Network (SAN) discussing how SAN, through the help of its members, strives to protect the automotive hobby from harmful government legislation.

A current example of SAN’s efforts is the “Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016” (RPM Act), which would ensure that converting street vehicles to racecars used exclusively in competition does not violate the Clean Air Act.  

The 2016 SEMA Show will be held November 1–4, 2016, in Las Vegas. Exhibitors: buy a booth now!
